Antibes
Antibes in the summer months makes its own case — narrow streets, long views, and food and wine that punch above the town’s size.
Eat
- Jeanne Three hundred low-intervention wines stacked shelf upon shelf, craft beers beside them, and small plates to anchor the evening — the white-asparagus risotto when it appears.
- Mamo Michelangelo Chef Mamo’s Italian-Mediterranean room — warm, authentic, and cooked from what the south had that morning. Vieil Antibes
- Momento da Salvo Gnocchi alla norma, burrata and tiramisù, character to spare, and an outdoor terrace that catches the last of the day’s sun.
Stay
- Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc The legendary hideaway of 1870 — Garbo and Chagall summered beneath its striped cabanas — pines to the water’s edge and privacy that has outlasted every era since.
- Cap d’Antibes Beach Hotel Bubblegum pink and geometric — Palm Springs meeting the Mediterranean through architect Bernard Dubois’s play of shadow and light, with thirty-five rooms and beach beds made for lost afternoons. Cap D’Antibes
Do
- Musée Picasso The Château Grimaldi, where Picasso worked for six months in 1946 — a small, significant collection of his art and ceramics, sculptures outside, the Mediterranean beyond.
- Plage Keller Sun beds, a dock to jump from, and Olivier Condat’s seafood on the terrace when dinner calls — the private beach done the old way. Cap D’Antibes
